an iconic musical figure from each city where I am performing. I
organize a band, and play one song. In each case, myself and the
other bad members wear headphones with the original song playing
while we perform. No performer is permitted to play an instrument they
were trained to play. What is produced is a pure emotional
interpretation of the song. The audience witnesses the resonance of
the desire to become the rock star, without the virtuosity of being the
rock star.
Reality, more often than not, fails to live up to imagination. How do I
illuminate the space between what we want to be, or who we think we
could be, and what we are? Expectations and results, fantasy and
actual life are at the core of my work. Having experience in dance and
performance, in addition to my fine arts background, I explore this
question in terms of presentation, rather than represented, pictorial
imagery.
